We live in a society in which the idea of
self-knowledge is not only not encouraged but also totally ignored. Society has become accustomed to setting a
pattern of behavior, and it is always expected that all the others will "fit"
into this pattern.
But the truth is that there are profound
differences in behavior, something that was perfectly observed by the famous
father of psychoanalysis, the Swiss psychiatrist and psychotherapist Carl
Gustav Jung. He noted that there are people
who are in deep need of constant social interaction, who are extremely
difficult to see themselves alone, and others who seek isolation and are
extremely satisfied with very little social interaction, as well as being
extremely creative and original Beings.
